No pictures as of yet as it's very, very early into the process.
The idea itself for the whole piece involves mainly making so many small cardboard building as more of a base, gluing them down to the canvas, using the apoxie sculpt to cover the houses and add detail, painting them after they dry.
There's also the aspect of a sort of ledge/cliff side effect to it (( at least trying for that)) with some balled up aluminum foil hot glued to the canvas.
The glued on foil and a test patch of the apoxie sculpt is where I am on that piece right now. Waiting for the sculpt to fully cure ad see how it came out as of not before continuing my experiment.
Either way, also working of sourcing enough cardboard to make enough houses to fill in more of the canvas (( that shouldn't be really hard thankfully.)) and also going to have to start making some houses from the cardboard I do have.
